Why Heliski Here?

Why Heliski Here?
  • Small groups- of only 4 skiers plus guide means more personal attention from the guides and more skiing and likelihood of skiing with similar ability skiers.
  • Unlimited Vertical at no extra cost- really is ‘all you can eat’ heliskiing, where as other operators charge for extra vertical you ski above the guaranteed minimum.
  • Lowest guide and heli to group ratios of any operator- see below.
  • Down days at a bare minimum – Their track record speaks for itself: Winter 08/09- 2 half days clients couldn’t fly; Winter 07/08- NO down days; 06/07 -only 2!
  • Pre-ski close by at Kicking Horse – (Canada’s ‘Jackson Hole’) means that some combined packages are offered to allow you to warm up in some of the best powder resort skiing on the planet with the famous Canadian hospitality.
  • Location – the most accessible operation out of an international airport (Calgary – 330km or about 4 hours away). Their lodge is located just off the TransCanada Highway… so no extra transfers or nights accommodation are required. Your helicopter leaves from right out the back door!
